Mondeo, Focus, Mazda 6, Astra, Honda Accord. I ended up with a Mondeo, but could have been happy with any of those 5. Focus is astonishingly big inside considering its footprint, it’s actually easier to get my downhill bike into my old Focus than my Mondeo. Mind you, once it’s in, it rattles inside the mondeo 😉
If I could’ve found a nice 2.0 TDCI Focus, I’d have had that- fantastic package. But 9/10ths of the used ones on the market seem to have the orrible 1.6 engine in them or the 1.8 diesel.
which puts you within 4 years of the 100,000mile diesel self distruct button where the DMF, turbo, injectors and fuel pump all seem to go wrong.
Ford must have forgotten to fit the button to my 2. Typical bad workmanship 😉
